Well, sword suggestiveness, anyway. I've had the zanpakutou-as-shinigami-daemons thought myself, and toyed with ways to write it, but DUDE YOU WIN. This is so perfect. Especially Kaien's reaction to his wife petting his sword, mrowr.
There definitely needs to be discussion of this theory. What do the shinigami know about what the shape of their swords means about their personalities? Ohh, I want to write analyses now; Renji's two-headed sword, how he's pulled in two different directions practically every time we see him, Ichigo's shadowy pimp guide who, I'd bet money, looks far more human than most zanpakutou and what that might mean...
I also now kind of want crossover fic. Soul Society as one of the suburbs of the dead? Or maybe the adventures of one of the older knife-bearers in SS... it could totally make sense. Maybe.
